Hey guys, right when I start my car and try to roll down the windows, the drivers side rolls down just fine every time, but the passenger side rolls down so slow I want to cry. I could probably complete a puzzle it takes so long. And then once it gets literally probably half an inch from the bottom, it stops. Then I'll drive about a block maybe less, then I hit the button and it will go the rest of the way. Today, when rolling it up it went as slow as it usually does and then stopped about an inch or so from the top. This was ten seconds after I stopped driving and put it in park. I originally maybe thought alternator, but I'm pretty sure the window's power motor is problematic due to the slowness. So would it be the alternator, all the window's motor's fault, or the battery? I already have a replacement alternator and might try that before buying an expensive battery. I'm sixteen so I have limited funds and trying to save for some performance upgrades. Sorry for the long post just want to fully explain the problem to help you guys help me. Thanks in advance.

P.S. Has anyone else had this problem? Is it a common problem for us?

 

I'd try cleaning and relubing first. There may be a bind, however. There's a thermal switch that stops the motor if overheating occurs. Once the motor cools, it becomes operational.
